I am kind of bummed that updating so infrequently these days means there is too much that has happened to cram into a newsy-type blog post here? But anyway the important thing is I like you and thank you for reading.

SAM: Yeah! First day of class!
PALMER: Ever the Hermione, huh?
SAM: Specifically the first day of fiction class. My first college writing workshop! It feel like I’m arriving, you know? I’ve been dreaming and practicing but now I finally get to put my work out there. Meet with my literary peers!

PALMER: Well... don’t get your hopes too up, ok? Some people might just be there for the credit.
SAM: Yes, I suppose I shouldn’t inflate my expectations.

PROF. PROFESSORSON: Yes?
SAM: Um... is this Fiction Workshop 104?
PROF. PROFESSORSON: Did Ahab seek the White Whale? But of course, young lady! Shut that door and find yourself a place amongst your fellow scholars.
